Christmas Eve 2008

Since we would be spending Christmas with Jeff's parents, we gathered tonight with my Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Jim & Cousins Jenni and Justin. We would not be joining them in Malibu with the rest of the family over the next couple of days, so it was the only time we could get together.

Given the tough economic conditions, we decided it best to focus on gifting only to the kids this Christmas. (i like that idea!) Ryan got his highchair and a cute ladybug book. Dylan got some clothing and a "mystery" gift. (Aunt Nadia forgot to put it in his gift bag for him) I guess he'll have to wait to see what it is next time we see them!

As usual, we had a great time with them. After dinner we played a couple games: A dice game called Left, Right, Center and a card game called Apples to Apples. Both were games that we had never played before so it was a lot of fun.

We didn't get home until after 11p. We're pooped!
